Gender and intersectionality in the Women’s year: Responses to Violence from immigrant women’s perspective
Gender Studies at the Faculty of Political Science, in collaboration with MARK – Centre for Diversity and Gender Research, invites you to a lecture series on gender and intersectionality in Women’s Year (Kvennaár).
This session focuses on Women’s Year’s priorities regarding gender-based violence.
The speaker will be Flora Tietgen, PhD student and adjunct at the School of Education. Flora’s lecture is titled: Immigrant women and intimate partner violence: Rethinking social and institutional frameworks.
The panel will include Linda Dröfn Gunnarsdóttir, Executive director of Kvennaathvarfið, the Women’s Shelter, and Najlaa Atallah, board member of WOMEN. The session will be chaired by Þorgerður J. Einarsdóttir, Professor in Gender studies. The event will be conducted in English.
About the lecture series
Much has been achieved in gender equality over the past decades, and to support further progress it is useful to create a forum where researchers and stakeholders, who are already doing important work in this field, can review the current situation and discuss key challenges.
Women’s Year has set out priorities that can be divided into three areas: the underestimation of women’s work and pay equality; unpaid work and care responsibilities; and gender-based violence.
Each session will focus on one of these priorities, with gender and intersectionality perspectives in the foreground.
